We give private music lessons on all the popular instruments for students of all ages. Our 4-5 year old students can join our Music Discovery program, which is an introduction to music that encourages children to use their senses to make and enjoy music.  

We have been helping people start their musical journey in SWFL for over 30 years. Since 1991 we have helped thousands of students begin and continue on their musical journey. We are the largest music school in Southwest Florida, offering private lessons in all popular instruments. We know you are busy, and it can be very hard to find a reliable music teacher. That's why we go above and beyond to find the BEST music teachers in Fort Myers, and from around the U.S. - so you don't have to!

All of our teachers are background checked and university educated. Our faculty consists of over two dozen experienced music teachers, capable of teaching all ages and levels. They have teaching experience, a degree in music / education, extensive performing experience, and most importantly, a fun, motivating personality! No matter what your musical goals are, we want to help you reach them! Our goal is to inspire your student - and that's the best teaching method of all! We ensure that your student and their teacher are the right match. They should feel comfortable with each other and get along! If we need to try out a different teacher, we certainly can!

We not only have quality instructors, but quality equipment as well. Our lesson rooms are fully stocked with high quality instruments and equipment for your use.

Private lessons are offered for students 5+ for $130. This includes 4 weeks of private 30 min lessons. To best see how your child's investment is paying off, we offer FREE bi-annual recitals!

We are open from 9am to 8pm, Monday through Friday, and 9am - 4pm on Saturdays. When you walk into our offices, you'll be greeted by one of our three front desk attendants!

We constantly renovate and improve our facilities, as well as provide on-going support to our students with a variety of non-lesson activities, to ensure we are always providing our students and parents with the best possible musical experience. We have a parent's lounge that is spacious and comfortable, complete with windows for you to watch your child's lesson, if you like!
